If I watched this in 2009 when it aired, it would probably be a drama close to my heart that I love greatly.
Watching it now, you get all the cliches from K-Dramas in the early 2000's lol. Bad acting, the sound was really weird at time when the screaming and crying would feel like they're yelling into your ears.
Lots of really corny, and sometimes boring, scenes. Overall, I didn't hate it. It's one of those classics that you can't help but enjoy. I did have many moments where I skipped dialogue just because I felt as if it was dragging on so long.
The ending felt really rushed and confusing. SPOILER
Instead of shoving in the lost memory cliche, it would've been nice to fill that space with the 2 leads growing their bond. Wouldve been nice to see the ML's dad eventually wake up and to see the chairwoman make amends with her kids.
Overall, would give it a 3/5, it was really hard to get into it in the beginning, I was going to drop it but started putting it on for bg noise and next thing I knew, I was binging it.
If you're someone that still enjoys corny classics, this drama as well as "Cinderella and the 4 knights" are enjoyable considering when they aired.
